    I'd only do it with drive disconnected to the affected end.

    Once you've worked out which end has the problem, remove that prop shaft.
    Even then you do run the risk of further damage.

    Are you in the NRMA? They might assist.

    If the prop shafts are not moving with the cdl unlocked and then have drive with it locked would it not be one of the output shafts in the transfer case stripped. If it was the diff you would see the tail shaft to the broken diff spinning when unlocked.

    Ok have put the car in the air and front diff only 1 wheel turning when i spin. When i put on the diff locks both shafts spin but only the rear wheels spin nothing happening in the fron.picked up another 91 disco friday night for $800 so might start with replacing diff and then move all the good stuff over like long range fuel tank, body lift and the brand new tyres
